About plant parameters

hi
   everybody
    plz. tell me
wat is mean by plant parameters
whrer we maintain it
wat functions or values we maintain for this
wat it effects in SAP
   where we use it
   give details
   thanks in advance

Plant parameters carries important control parameters during MRP run
when you convert planned order into a prod order, the order type is copied from the plant parameters (oppq>>planned order coversions)
During MRP run ( if MRP run type is NETPL - Net Change Planning with Plannign Horizon), the planning horizon period
is defined in the Plant Parameters (OPPQ>>Planning Run>> Planning Horizon)
If Order start date is in the past, the system automatic does forward scheduling. In some scenarios if its ok to
have order start date in the past then you make setting over here (OPPQ>>Planning Run>> order start in the past)
Like wise, Special Procurements key from issuing plant are maintained in the plant parameters
SMK is also maintained in the plant parameters
Under the setting of Available stock, what type of stock you consider as Available stock ( like Stock in Transfer, Blockedd Stock, Restricted Use Stock) is considered as
available stock
The plant parameters are maintained in OPPQ
Also, Before maintaining MRP plant parameters, you need to activiate MRP for the respective plant in OMDU

Difference between To maintain and initial in plant parameters in MRP custo

Hi, Gurus,
Can anyone explain me about the difference between status showing
to maintain and initial in plant parameters in MRP customization
Thanks & Regards
sathyanarayana

Dear Sathyanarayana,
In T code OPPQ - Maintain Plant Parameters,it does not
mean we have to maintain a value in all the parameters
present under different tab keys.
IF you check generally MRP controllers,Floats,Number
Ranges,BOM/Routing Selection,Planning horizon,Available
stock these values will be maintained.
Some of the settings like Start in Past will be as Initial(not
allowed in the past).
IF you use some special procurement key,then that settings
has to be maintained.
I hope this will help you.

can sombeody tell me path

Hi
Go to SPRO>Production>Material Requirements Planning>Plant Parameters> Carry Out Overall Maintenance of Plant Parameters and execute. (Transcation OPPQ)
Select Maintain and give the plant
Select External procurement Tab and select Unknown account assignment.
But, you need account assignment for non-valuated material for external procurement.
Hope it solves your issue.

Consequences of maintaining Plant Parameters

Dear All,
I would like to know that what could be the consequences for maintaing plant parameters under ' Inventory Mangement and Physical Iinventory ' for the plant which is copid from the existing plant for which plant parameters have not been maintained.
This is what SAP is saying (the extract is from spro implementation guide)
Plant Parameters
In this step, you make the general plant settings for
Inventory Management. All settings are also contained in the individual steps of the Implementation Guide for Inventory Management. If you want to allow negative stocks in your plant, you have to set the XBKNG indicator in addition to the settings in this step. To maintain this indicator, choose the step Goods Issue/Transfer Postings -> Allow Negative Stocks in Customizing.
Recommendation
SAP recommends that you do not make the plant settings here, but in the individual steps of the Implementation Guide, so that the settings here are not without a context. Dependent settings are not contained in this step.
Activities
If you have created a plant in the enterprise structure using the Copy plant function, you do not need to make any settings.
If you have created a plant manually, you have to create a new entry for the plant parameters.
What should I do? Should I go for it or not?
Thanks and regards,
Saleel Kulkarni

Hi,
If you created a plant by copying the standard plant 1000 , the plant paramaters foe inventory management will automatically come to your newly created plant. N o need of creating parameters separately in inventory management. If you create the plant without copy function you have to maintain plant parameters. I hope this will help you. Thanking you.

Question about parsing parameters through url

Hello,
I have some questions about parsing parameters through a url.
What I want to build is a page with some text fields and maybe one drop down list. After user enter values into the text fields and select one option in the drop down list, then press the submit button, a report will be opened, which according to the parameters parsed.
These were what I have done:
1. create a blank page and a region
2. create one text field in the region, the name is FIRSTNAME
3. create one hidden items FN, of which the source value is item FIRSTNAME
4. create a process. the type is "Set Preference to value of Item" which set PN with the value of FIRSTNAME when the page submitted
5. create a button "Submit Page and Redirect to URL", in the URL I entered:
http://dianti.local.net:9704/xmlpserver/~shichao/GuestFolder/orderdetail/orderdetail.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2F~shichao%2FGuestFolder%2Forderdetail%2Forderdetail.xdo&FIRSTNAME=&FN.&_xt=orderdetail&_xf=pdf&_xmode=4
My problem is: it seems working for the first time after I entered a value in the FIRSTNAME text field and press submit button, but when I come back to the page (the report was opened in the same page, wondering how to open it in a new window?), the value is saved in the text field and after I enter another value and submit the page again. It still parse the old value to the report. The value of the parameter doesn't change.
What's the reason? and is this the correct way to build what I want?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Shichao

Hi Scott,
Thank you again for the help.
But this didn't answer my question exactly. I have tested what you created and the problem remains. When I first time enter a value in the text field and press the button, it goes to page 2, but the parameter didn't parsed. When I go back to page 1 and then click the button again. After that I can see the value I parsed on page 2. Same thing happens when I try to enter a new value. So which means the button has to been pressed twice to parse the parameter.
Due to the limitation of my knowledge of Apex. I don't know how to fix it. Could you please help me again and hope you understand what the problem is. Thank you very much.

Any tutorial about url parameters

hi
i search for any tutorial about url parameters and how to use
it in one page to call every thing just change the url parameter
and every thing on the page changed like the visibility of
something ,,,,,
thanks in advance.

There are two parts to a URL parameter -
1. Sending it
2. Receiving it
To send it, do this -
<a href="whatever.php?your_parameter=<?php echo
$whatever; ?>">This link
will send the parameter to 'whatever.php'</a>
To receive it, do this -
<?php
$yourVariable =
isset($_GET['your_parameter'])?$_GET['your_parameter']:'';
?>
That parameter's value is now stored in $yourVariable. The
isset part tests
to see if the parameter has been specified at all, and if it
has not, it
sets $yourVariable to '', while if it has, it sets
$yourVariable to the
value of the parameter. It is functionally equivalent to -
<? php
if (isset($_GET['your_parameter'])) {
$yourVariable = $_GET['your_parameter'];
} else {
$yourVariable = '';

Plant Parameters

Hi ,
Pls tell me how to maintain plant parameters?
And who is defining this Plant parameters PP or MM?
Regards
Gitesh

Dear,
Plant parameter you need to define in OPPQ. As it is relevant to MRP so its PP person responsibility but it is integration between PP and MM like number range for Purchase requisition. availability check etc.
Hope clear your Doubts.

Difference between MRP group and plant parameters

hai friends,
please let me know, what is the main difference between the MRP group and plant parameters?,
what are the extra activities or features with one, when compare to the other?.
Edited by: Mourya.v on Sep 22, 2010 6:36 AM

Dear Mourya,
Why to assign MRP group? - If planning for each plant is not specific enough for your purposes and you would like to assign
control parameters that differ from the control parameters defined for the plant to certain material groups.
1.For all materials without an MRP group, the system uses the plant parameters that is the settings present in OPPQ, or the
entries in the initial screen of the planning run.
2.For all materials with an MRP group, the system uses the parameters recorded in the MRP group that is the settings in OPPR.
3.The MRP group is an organizational object that can be used to allocate special control parameters for planning to a group of
materials. You can maintain MRP groups if planning control per plant is not precise enough for your requirements and you want
to allocate certain material groups different control parameters from the plant parameters. For this purpose, MRP groups are
defined with these specific control parameters and are assigned to the material in the material master record (MRP 1 screen).
4.The MRP group, groups material from the material requirements planning point of view to allocate them control parameters for
planning.The control parameters include the strategy group, the planning horizon and the creation indicator for the planning run.

MRP Plant Parameters

Dear Sir,
What are MRP plant parameters?Pl.Explain in details?
Points will be rewarded......

Hi,
The In this step, you can maintain all the plant parameters
1.Environment : Here you define the number ranges and the Backorder checking rule.
2.Master data: Like mrp controller,Speical procurment type and the Float - scheduling marging key can be configureed here
3.Conversion of planned order to productin order /Purchase requistion can be configure here
4. Planning urn : the selection of BOM ,Bom explosion,available stock etc and lot more can be configured here
Even though we have separate areas where we can define each of them separately here we can define most of the mRP related to single plant can be configured at this one.
Kindly let us know if this solves your query or if you are looking for anyother thing.

Plant Parameters in GR Conversion

Hi All,
During GR conversion, we got the message,
"Plant parameters not maintained"
Any guess which plant parameters will have effect on GR conversion?
Thanks

How did you create a Plant. I mean to say Whether you have created a Plant with reference to another Plant. If this is the case Plant parameters will be automatically copied.
If you created a Plant using Create function You should maintain All the Plant Parameters in the SPRO -> IMG ->Mat Mgmt -> Inventory Management & Physical Inventory -> Maintain Plant parameters.

Carry out plant parameters

Hi Gurus ,
In SPRO -> MM-> Consumption based planning ->plant parameters -> carry out overall maintenance of plant parameters.
I am copying the plant parameters from plant 'X' to plant 'Y ' . But both of these plant are from different company codes .
What is the impact if the two plants are from different company code ? what changes do I need to do in plant 'Y' parameters after copying ?
Please explain in detail
Regards,
Saurav

Here is used to specify plant parameters for the material requirements planning, I also don't see the potential impact which might caused by different company codes.
In
Enterprise Structure
Definition
Logistics - General
Define, copy, delete, check plant
You could copy plant refering to template, which has company and plant's combination.

Clarification about plant and terms of payment In Master Data:

Hello Gurus,
I have a doubt as follows:
1) In Material master (MM01) we are maintaining Plant as two types.
     a) Plant at organisation leve pop up at the begining
     b) Delivering plant at Sales organisation 1.
So, is there any difference between plant and delivering plant or are they different objects ?
2) Terms of payment in Customer master (XD01)
     a) we maintain Terms of payment customer master at company code level in "Payment transaction"
     b) we also maintain Terms of payment in customer master at sales area data in "Billing Documents" tab
Now Why do we need to maintain at these to levels.
FYI: I have also tried to maintain two different Terms of payment and without any hesitation the system accepts, why ?
What is the significance of it.
Please clarify the above.
Thanks,
Venky.

Hello Venky,
1. Material / Plant
A Material is always stored in a Plant & there would be various parameters to be entered for that particular Plant. E.g. Storage Bin, Picking Area, Negative Stocks allowed in Pant, GR Processing time, etc..
Now the same Material may or may not be sold from the same plant, or even if it is sold from the same plant, there would be different Sales parameters for each combination Sales Organisation & Plant. There Sales Organisation specific parameters are entered in Sales Organisation/PLant view. Tax classification Data, Cash Discount indicator, Sales Unit, Delivering Plant, Division, Minimum Order & Minimum Delivery quantity.
2. Payment Terms
The Payment Terms entered in Billing tab in Sales Area data is copied into Sales order & Invoice.
The Payment Terms in Company Code data are used by FI department when posting direct payment (without reference to Sales Document). e.g. to Offer Cash Discount for paying in advance.
Hope this clarifies,
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta
